Mr. Shimoli also said a circular had been circulated to all security agencies seeking permission to ban any activities going on in those areas.

He said a notice has been issued to the office of county commissioner, regional police County Commander, office of the deputy commissioner, chiefs and village elders so that appropriate action can be taken.

“This is real situation and nobody will be allowed to step in the quarry as soon as the Elnino rains starts,” Mr Shimoli told Baraka fm on phone.
